So Microsoft Announced Windows 10 a couple of days ago.
That's right, not 9. 10. They released a Technical Preview for "IT Professionals" and suchlike yesterday, and I signed up.Downloaded the ISO last night, installed it this morning… and voila:
Dunno if that embed is gonna work. I'm trying OneDrive out, as I haven't installed Dropbox yet.Here's the new Start Menu, if anybody is interested:
One of the first things I noticed is that Win10 doesn't force you into the Start Screen. It's still around, if you choose to activate it, but isn't the default/imposed setting now.Metro apps don't run in fullscreen, and instead start maximized and can be resized/moved like any normal Window.Haven't had any driver issues, with the exception of the generic "Tablet Pen" drivers that were installed for my tablet. Basically, my tablet is one giant "Reset PC" button at the moment :POn the installation front, installing was smooth, allowed me to install to a partition easily, and dual boots perfectly.I'll add more pictures and stuff if I feel like it. 
They skipped the "good" version and went straight to 10. Microsoft sure is sneaky.
I've been interested in giving it a try. Might just have to do so when I get home from work today.
@Steven: Fixed.
@death: Internally it's called 6.4:Maybe they mean Windows 10 (v6.4) ? Heh version numbers are always quite strange. I always got confused when trying to decide what version number I should use for my games and such.
My guess is Windows 10 is the product name, but not the version number. Obviously if they skipped 9, that makes sense but again, this is Microsoft we are talking about. They're the company that named their game consoles: Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One. They don't know how to count apparently.Well, all my drivers and commonly used programs are working fine so far. That includes Steam, Foobar, Winamp, gvim and a few other things.
@Jeremy: I was looking for that to post here…That's hilarious if true.
Looks like the way it should be. You should be able to snap windows they way you used to though, like half screen and stuff. Maybe they could make the half screen stuff work on dual screen setups as well cause that pisses me off on 7 and 8.
